Blue is the colour for this year's Champions League final, as Manchester City and Chelsea board their flights to Porto seeking to end the strangest of seasons with the biggest prize of them all.
Pep Guardiola's men advanced to the showpiece event after dumping Paris Saint-Germain out in the semi-finals, while all-time greats Real Madrid were no match for Thomas Tuchel's Chelsea.
A raucous 16,500-strong crowd will take their seats at the Estadio do Dragao for Saturday's showpiece event, as City endeavour to win the tournament for the first time while their opponents aim to channel the spirits of the 2012 luminaries.
We say: Manchester City 2-0 Chelsea
Guardiola and Tuchel will know better than anyone else that form goes out the window when it comes to the Champions League final, which ought to give the Stamford Bridge faithful hope that they could be celebrating a continental crown at the end of night.
City have had a history of failing to deliver on the European stage when it matters most, but the pressure of such an occasion should not get to them this time around.
Tuchel's side will not go down waving the white flag, but we are backing Guardiola to end his agonising wait for European success with the Manchester giants.
